Is this supposed to happen? I would have assumed the file would be automatically removed after the changes were committed. Thanks! -Paul ``` ## Karl Hasselström, 2008-02-28 09:41 Subject: Re: Minor bug in 'stg edit' ?

The bug is gone in the master branch (at least as far as I can tell); it probably disappeared when stg edit was switched to the new infrastructure. > Thanks! Thanks for the bug report. -- Karl Hasselström, kha@treskal.com www.treskal.com/kalle ``` ## Catalin Marinas, 2008-02-28 21:43 Subject: Re: Minor bug in 'stg edit' ?

I would have assumed the file would be automatically removed after the changes were committed. I wouldn't say it's a bug as I never thought it would cause any problems if left. Anyway, we could remove it if the operation was successful. -- Catalin ``` ## Paul Donohue, 2008-02-28 21:54 Subject: Re: Minor bug in 'stg edit' ?
